Through the Window: Lin Luoxue's Lazy Cousin

Page 419

In this era, domestically produced horror films are synonymous with bad movies.

Even if it exceeds 99.99%.

That's still a bad movie!

Lu Qiaochuan nodded, "It's okay, it's just a hodgepodge anyway, having a horror movie is good too."

"In that case, our feature film will incorporate elements of martial arts, action, time travel, and horror, which is much better than those of our senior brothers and sisters."

"Alright then." Su Chen lay back down: "Thirteen, copy the video to the two of them."

Bi Shisan looked at the two excited people.

He shook his head without saying anything and sent the video directly to the two of them.

"By the way," Su Chen asked, "what are you planning to name this film?"

"A name, huh?" Lu Qiaochuan stroked his chin. "Five reincarnations, how about that?"

"Samurai reincarnation?" Ren Yifan asked doubtfully. "Wouldn't swordsman reincarnation be better?"

Lu Qiaochuan's eyelids drooped, and he held up a finger: "It's this 'five,' not that 'martial.'"

"Okay~"

...

Ye Jiping in class.

Everyone took their seats.

Zhong Bai turned to look at Su Chen: "How's your horror movie coming along? I can't wait to watch it."

“A horror movie, huh?” Su Chen looked at Lu Qiaochuan on the other side: “I sent it to him directly, I didn’t see the finished product.”

Lu Qiaochuan turned around: "I didn't even watch it, I just added it to the end credits."

Zhong Bai exclaimed excitedly, "So, this will be the first time everyone sees it in a little while?"

“So exciting!”

"Will this finished product be terrifying?" Lin Luoxue asked quietly from the side.

She is one of the lead actresses.

Based on her performance on set, she had no idea how terrifying the film would actually be.

Su Chen said seriously, "If Bi Shisan accomplishes my idea, then it will definitely be terrifying."

“I’ve finished,” Bi Shisan said seriously. “It was truly terrifying.”

I overheard the conversation between the three people.

Zhong Bai was even more excited.

"Zhong Bai, don't you even want to know how your film went?" Ren Yifan winked at him from the side. "If you want to know, I can tell ByteDance about it~"

"No need, we can just wait for Teacher Ye to arrive and then we can see it!"

Zhong Bai laughed and said, "Besides, I have other roles to play, so I can accept whatever people say!"

"Huh?!" Ren Yifan looked at her in surprise, then moved closer to Lu Qiaochuan: "This seems a little different from the usual Brother Zhong~"

“This should be considered a good thing,” Lu Qiaochuan said earnestly.

...

Ye Jiping is on the podium.

Looking at the students, he smiled and said, "This is a video shoot for our second year of university. I will play your works one by one in a moment."

"Of course, it's the first time we've filmed, so there will definitely be many shortcomings. Therefore, I will focus on evaluating your visual language rather than the work itself."

"This~"

Ye Jiping looked at the back row and noticed two extra people: "Who are you two?"

"My name is Ren Yifan, and I'm the male lead invited by Mr. Lu." Ren Yifan waved to everyone, "I'm here to attend the film's premiere."

"This pretty young lady is named Li Lusi~ You can just call her Roes." Lin Luoxue said with a smile, "She is also the female lead in our film. She's here to see her own premiere."

"Oh dear~" Ye Jiping waved his hand and exclaimed, "I didn't expect our class to start hiring outside help for filming videos."

"This is a very good improvement."

At this point, Ye Jiping glanced at the others: "Unlike some people who just put together a five-minute video with a mobile phone and posted it."

"Ahem~" Jiang Yunming stood up: "Teacher Ye, you said you would only evaluate the visual language and not the content!"

"understood!"

"Teacher, teacher~" Yu Hao waved his hands, "Can you let us go first?"

"Sure! What's the name of your film?"

Yu Hao opened his mouth, then turned and asked, "What are our names?"

"Five lifetimes of reincarnation!"

"Samurai reincarnation!" Ye Jiping asked, "Is it about the story of Japanese samurai?"

"It used to be called a horror movie, now it can be called a ghost movie!" Ren Yifan exclaimed exaggeratedly.

"Alright, let's start with Yu Hao's work."

"Teacher!" Lu Qiaochuan raised his hand: "This work is the result of the joint efforts of the five of us. It can be described as a magnificent and epic piece."

"That's impressive!" Ye Jiping exclaimed, even more excited. "I didn't expect someone to attempt a feature film on their very first try!"

“Teacher Ye~” Xu Lianqiao raised her hand and said, “Actually, strictly speaking, our work is the real feature film.”

Ye Jiping: "How many minutes?"

"About twenty minutes."

"This..." Ye Jiping didn't know how to answer for a moment: "Actually, twenty minutes is not a long time in video creation."

"What about theirs?" Xu Lianqiao pointed to the side.

Ye Jiping looked at Lu Qiaochuan: "Your few minutes?"

"Twenty...fifteen minutes?" Lu Qiaochuan felt guilty, after all, only he knew how much of that time was actually spent.

"Okay, I guess I was overthinking it." Ye Jiping pushed up his glasses. "It's only the first class, and I'm already happy if I can get a script of more than twenty minutes."

"Alright, enough chit-chat, let's get started."

Ye Jiping clicked on the video.

The first film to start was Zhong Bai's film; the scene began at the very beginning.

It was that bamboo forest that Su Chen knew all too well.

Dressed in black.

He didn't say a word, just stood there posing with a knife on his back.

His inner monologue began: "I am a lonely and mysterious swordsman..."

After watching Su Chen's look for two minutes, Ye Jiping paused the video: "What is this? Is this padding? This is going to get us criticized by the audience."

Zhong Bai explained, "This is mainly to highlight the protagonist's loneliness and mystery. The female lead is about to appear, so let's continue!"

Ye Jiping said helplessly, "Alright."

The scene continues, and with the appearance of the female protagonist, Li Shuci, the story of love, hate, and entanglement between the two unfolds.

The screen flashes back.

Let's go back to the day they met.

In a deserted tavern, a lone swordsman drinks.

Not long after.

Li Shuci ran in in a disheveled state, begging for his help.

"Hero! Help me! Help me!"

"kindness?"

Su Chen looked up and saw the three bandits, played by Zhong Bai, Lin Luoxue, and Roes, jump in.

The three of them appeared.

The class burst into laughter instantly.

The reason is simple: all three of them were too small and lacked the imposing presence of bandits.

Zhong Bai said seriously, "Stop laughing, and look ahead!"

on the screen.

Su Chen looked at them and asked coldly, "Who are you?"

"We are the three brothers, Jinshan and Yinhai!"

Zhong Bai: "I am Jinshan!"
